Like many other reviewers, I made this for a work potluck and couldn't believe how fast it went. Everyone crowded around the crockpot, kinda made me feel bad for the other dishes. **Changes I made as this was for adults, I used Pepper Jack cheese instead of Mexican cheese, and Sharp cheddar instead of white cheddar, egg substitute (3/4 c.) and a few splashes of hot sauce of your choice!! Nice because you can cook pasta night before, mix everything together in the morning and when you get to work put it on low for 2-3 hrs. Comes out perfect and hot for the potluck. I haven't used the crockpot liners before, but might next time. It was a HUGE success. Also I have very picky kiddos and they loved it.

I made this for a party at work and it was a HUGE hit! I followed the recipe, except I used 4 cups of pasta or 1 lb instead of 3 cups. And the last 1/2 hour I sprinkled about 1/2 of a cup of seasoned bread crumbs with about a 1/2 cup of additional butter. All I can say is OMG! My friends were scraping the crock pot to get every last bite. I cooked the pasta the night before and put all the other ingredients in another container and then cooked it at work. I did not melt the butter, I just cubed it. The next time I made it I used a cooking bag and the clean up was so much easier. My friends call it crack or a heart attack in a spoonful. Enjoy

This is the absolutely the BEST macaroni & cheese recipe I have ever had!! I've always been trying to duplicate Picadilly's macaroni & cheese recipe, but this one is even better!!! It is cheesy, creamy & oh soooo delicious!!!!!!!!!!

I used a 10 oz. box of elbow noodles, did NOT use the eggs, increased the regular milk to 2 cups. I used about 12 oz. white sharp and 12 oz of medium cheddar and about 20 oz. of velveeta. I did use 1 stick of butter. Added salt and pepper. Excellent! Served with my New Years meal. Will make again and again!

Perfect potluck dish! I skipped the eggs, substituted Sharp White Cheddar for white cheddar and added a dash of Paprika and cooked on low for 2 hours. I was shocked at how quickly it disappeared, the pleased faces and pleasantly surprised to be asked for "my" recipe. I will serve this again. It gives the comforting gooey goodness of boxed macaroni but with that homemade touch.

How much uncooked pasta, it can't be 3 cups to serve 16 people???

We made this for Thanksgiving in place of my Mom's macaroni that everyone has always loved. Needless to say, everyone loved this one much more! I have now been designated to make the macaroni and cheese from now on, lol. Thank you so much for this recipe! We love it!

The owner of my workplace throws a Thanksgiving buffet for people who don't have family around, and this year he asked to make mac and cheese for. I used this recipe and it was such a huge hit that everyone asked me to make it again for our Christmas party!

I only made minor changes -- left out the eggs, added a cup of sliced extra-sharp cheddar, used shell pasta, used only evaporated milk and added some vegetable broth because it turned rather too stiff/sticky at one point, but that was it. The result was smooth, creamy, and hearty-- truly a comforting crowd pleaser!

Made this recipe the first time for a grown up birthday party. Mac n cheese is his favorite dish so I made this and people where still talking about it 2 weeks later. Making it for a bbq we are going to today. I followed the recipe except I put 8oz of mild cheddar and 8oz of sharp cheddar and only one stick of butter.

The taste was really good, but it turned out a little thick for my liking. Next time I will cook at a lower temp in the crockpot or add a little more milk. The taste of the white cheddar was surprisingly good!

This was so yummy! The only thing is that it was so rich. It was almost too hard to eat so make sure to pair it with something plain like green beans. The recipe is definitely a keeper.

Just finished serving this at a company potluck. It was a big hit and was super easy to make. For a dash of presentation, I combined some bread crumbs and melted butter and sprinkled it on top.

This recipe was used with few, if any, deviations for my son's birthday lunch with family. It received rave reviews and I was asked for the recipe (more than once) which endorsed the greatness of the dish.

Hands down the BEST recipe for mac and cheese! I made it exactly as printed with no changes and got rave reviews from family and friends- a great potluck dish! Next time I'm going to try sprinkling it with buttered cornflake crumbs on top before serving!

Good recipe, but I will decrease the fat content next time I make it.

Delicious, very creamy. I combined all ingredients for cheese sauce, added it to cooled macaroni, then put it in the greased slow cooker. Cooked it for 2 hours on slow and then 30 min. on high.

I try a difference recipe every time I make Mac n Cheese (4 or 5 times a year). So far this has been the easiest and best tasting. I would never have thought to cook mac n cheese in the crock pot but it was yummy.
